Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Caledonian Hotel enjoys a superb location, ideal for accessing the ferry to Stornoway and exploring Ullapool's harbor and nearby restaurants. Guests often appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, with modern bathrooms, comfortable beds, and sometimes even minibars included. Breakfast is a highlight for many, featuring both cooked and continental options, though a few guests have mentioned that the rooms facing the back of the hotel do not have the best views.
